This made a wonderful gift and was a surprise for my daughter that she was getting a guitar. Especially happy that I could get a deal this nice for the quality of the items considering the current economics. I was pleased with everything that came with the kit for a begining guitar player, including a case that will be appreciated for taking back to the dorm. Our daughter was very happy with the set. I recognized the Epiphone name as quality. This was confirmed by a local music merchant and musician that this was a guitar she could play the rest of her life and was in fact the same guitar that he used and liked.Excellent value as everything was included for a beginning musician and great quality for the price paid.

I've been playing for over 40 years and wanted an inexpensive acoustic for my wife to learn on. I made the mistake of letting her choose a guitar without being with her. After a week she quickly lost interest and what I discovered was that basic chords played above the 3rd fret was fine but clumsy. (sharp edges on the fret corners added to the difficulty). Beyond the 4th fret the string buzz, tone and tuning made the instrument unplayable. I took it back and discovered all were like this. We spent about $75 more and found a good starter instrument for her. Her interest and playing quickly improved dramatically. I now let her use one of my vintage Martins and gave her starter to our daughter to learn on. So please spend a few extra bucks, you don't have to spend alot for something that will sound, feel and play easily.

WOW was my first impresion. the look is great and the sound is even better. and not just for beginners, i have been playing for about 5 years and the guitar is great for any level. and the preamp, wonderful! the strings have alittle buzz at first but when you change them the buzz should go away. BUY THIS!

This is a really great guitar. It has good action and is super tough. I've dropped it about five times and its still standin strong. Not a scratch on it. I hooked it up with some D'Addario electric guitar strics, which makes the buzzing you get stop. I suggest that everyone put electric strings on there acoustic guitars. All in all a Great Guitar.

I bought this package about a year ago. It was a pure impulse buy that I won't regret. I actually got an amazing deal on it. I always wanted an acoustic, and this deal was hard to pass up. I was a bit skeptical, but when I got it home and opened it up, I was amazed. It took little tuning and sounded great. It has a good presence to it.The neck felt like it had a bit of a knot in it around the 5th fret, but the neck plays so smooth, it's hard to notice. The frets were a bit sharp, but that's to be expected sometimes. The finish was perfect, and I'm not a huge sunburst fan. This guitar is still a great value. It sounds like some of them are hit or miss, but I haven't had any problems with it. I put elixers on it, and it sounds so bright now. It's a great axe and I'd recommend it to anyone. Also, the accessories aren't completely worthless either, and mine came with an electric tuner as well.

I own several guitars and this is one of them. This guitar sounds really good and has great action out of the box. the strings that came on it were garbage (they always are), but once I re -strung it things were great. good tone quality, the craftsmanship was much nicer than I would have expected for the money, as epiphone guitars always are. The last 2 guitars I have bought were epiphone and its because they are delivering a great product for the money. My best advice is to play some and compare for yourself. This guitar rocks over what other manufacturers are selling for 200-300$. plus the accesories are functional. I use the little digital tuner and gig bad all the time. epiphones are real treasures. I have had this guitar for almost 2 years and it has been problem free dispite a couple drops. best value for the money-- I was revisiting the product page so I can recommend for a friend and decided to ease your concearns as well. BUY THIS GUITAR!

This instrument is a unique value. This guitar has class. Fantastic guitar for a beginning guitarist and made with excellent quality materials. I own 21 guitars. I am very particular of guitars I choose for my personal satisfaction and joy. This is a fine guitar easily worth the price and more.

I bought this guitar a year and a half ago,the bridge is falling off, the tuning keys turn rough, the back of the tuning key is pulling out of the guitar, and then some. I treat my guitars really well so I'm mad it's breaking so much.

i was looking for a good guitar for a good price..and i saw this one and once i got it ...i knew it was going to be awesome. i had to tune some strings but this thing will stay in tune for a a good while.its cool buy it.
